Worship music hot take: “Used to This” by @elevation_wrshp and @MavCityMusic is the kinda worship song @rascalflatts should cover. Sounds like @GaryLevox style. #newmusicmonday

Hey PSA: Being vaccinated does NOT mean you can join up with 8 of your closest friends for a hiking trip just so you can throw a metal souvenir into some evil volcano.

PASTORS IN A PANDEMIC
{A thread}

Everyone has had a truly difficult year and the past 12 months have been brutal, refining and unpredictable. From my perspective, I’ve seen how it’s affected pastors emotionally, mentally and professionally.

Only 30% of non-Christians have a positive reaction when they see people post things about their Christian faith on social media. https://t.co/FauwNIJ1zb via @cnieuwhof

The last year has been really tough on all of us. A few things that have helped me . . .
1. Regular exercise
2. Reading books
3. Cooking meals at home
4. Fresh air & sunshine
5. Less social media
6. Going to church
7. Prayer & the Bible
8. Earlier bedtime
9. Time w/ my family

Seven years ago I sat in a hospital as the doctor uttered those words, ‘I’m sorry, there’s no heartbeat’. Today I started my PhD in stillbirth/preterm research at that same hospital... because a mother’s love never dies. #ForAurora

I love our church staff meetings.

Jesus’s model prayer (The Lord’s Prayer) is a MISSIONAL prayer:

“Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come.”

ME: (dreamily) Hey babe, what’s the desire of your heart? 😘

AMANDA: (exasperated)Oh my gosh, Ben! Not everything is connected to my heart. 🙄

ME: Well, “the heart of a man is a deep, deep well.”😌

AMANDA: Yeah, and “it’s deceitful above all things,” too.

ME:...

"Should we burn the house down?"

A mother in Australia found in her daughter's room what can only be described as too many spiders. https://t.co/PiK5tnHDxn

I’m thankful that in my most early days of faith, God did not withhold part of Himself or His heart from me even though I misunderstood a lot about who He was.

He’s still as generous in this way today.
